I found Paik’s TV Garden intriguing because I say it as a future
prediction of what the worlds was going to be like today. With every year comes
the mentality that we want the next best thing, the top of the line as far as
technology gets better and better. But we just throw away last year’s model. Creating
huge stockpiles of old technology. I feel TV Garden is representative of that,
it is reminiscent of a TV graveyard/ junkyard with years of overgrowth because it
gets overlooked by the public and viewed as worthless.

Vostell’s Electronic Decollage was chaotic. There was so
much going on at once. Which I believe was the point he was trying to convey. Just
as the TV industry started to create shows and programs they were distractions
from what was really going on in the world. Just as these monstrosities of TV
robot collages distract you from the screen that you are trying to view.

1) What is the purpose of the televisions besides it being a distraction
from our daily lives? Is there a power structure built with advertisement and
also television as a whole? Who is reaping the benefits?

2) Televisions just begin to keep getting better
in quality. Is there going to be a time where

Televisions are so in depth that
those static images become reality? And if those images on the

screen get more color
or frame rate improves how that effect the way we see the world as a whole will?
